I have three tanks of gas in my house.....CO2 for beer and soda, beer gas for my stout faucet, and argon for my Wine Keeper. I want to get things a bit more organized and put all of the regulators on a board in one place. I have seen regulators sell on eBay that have a length of hose that attaches to the tank nad goes to the regulator but haven't had any luck finding this hose. Anyone know what it is called and\or where I would find it?

You're going to need "high pressure hose" compatible with your gases, similar to this, and with the specific fittings needed to go between your various tanks and their respective regulators.

If you Google "high pressure CO2 hose" you can find companies that will make them up to your specified length and with the fittings you need...

Cheers!
 
They are expensive but I got one on eBay for under $10. It's much nicer to have the regs mounted to a bracket at eye level and the tank on the floor out of the way.

What kind of bracket did you use to mount them?
 
More interested to know if the one from Beverage Factory will connect from the tank to the regulator that normally connects directly to the tank. Seems like it's made to go into the same spot the stem from the tank does. I'd like to get one (or more than one actually) that connects to the regulator that allows me to leave the regulator as it originally came to me. Basically, be able to direct connect the regulator to the tank again at any time I want (with minimum work, or tools).
 
The high pressure line I have has standard 1/4" pipe thread on one side and ffl ( female flare thread) on the other side. You attach the stem and CGA nut from the regulator to the npt side and I got a 1/4" npt to 1/4" mfl adapter from the hardware store.

I made and welded the bracket myself out of angle iron
